EVictiOns in Ireland.

The friends of Ireland in Minneapolis
are greatly interested in O'Brien's cru
SADIE against Lord Lansdowne. An Irish
Nationalist yesterday handed the GLOBE
the following clipping from the London
Times anent the eyictiOns on LanS-
downe's estate i'll Queens county, Ire
land:
move was made across country to Denis
Sh0lloon's farm. The tenant, respectable
looking man, babe the sheriff good morn
ing, but on being informed that there was
decree against him for e44 los, he said he
had no intention of paying and only wished
there was another years rent due. The
sheriff pro ,eeded to take possession. The
furniture was removed. The tenant came
out and was cheered, his wife pattng him
on the back, and saying: "They might evict
him, but they could not evict God Almighty,
ana he would not be long wanting place"
The tenants say that they could not go on
paying the rents and be honest to others, and
mat II Is better to stop now and make stand.
Of the tenants who have been, evicted about
twenty had judicial rents, and the rest, in
Guiding leaseholders, were offered reduc-
ions OF 10 and 20 per cent. The only signs
OF poverty on the estate have been in the
case OF suD-tenants and laborers, many of
whom were living in very poor way Lord
Lansdowne now holds what is probably the
largest farm III Ireland in his hands. 1T is
held by about twenty emergency men posted
in various parts of the property and pro-
tected by as many police. while there is
force of as many more police stationed in
the village. The two Kavanaghs, who paid
their rent, are under police protection. They
have been groaned at by the crowd whenever
their houses have been passed, and described
by the local clergy in their speeches as
traitors and 'WretcheS"

ALL SORTS.

The board of trade came out of its hole
yesterday, locked at the sun and went
back to sleep until Oct. l. This is in
dicative of an early summer.
The Trlbune-Journal does not appar-
emily desire that the park police ques-
ton should be thoroughly understood
by the public, and contents itself with
broad assertions and abuse of Demo
Gratis. This rather remarkable way of
treating the momentOuS question of cut
ting down the salary OF an en-
ploye OF the city is only
eQualed by the curious change of front
noticeable in President Loring. who be-
fore election in his annual report re-
garded the amendments (which trans
fer the jurisdiction over trees and plant
ing in the city to the park board and
which give the board the nomination
and control of the police for the city
parks as most important2
For the comfort OF observer it is
stated that TO more appointments on
the police force were made yesterday
from the Hoy family. The commission
did not meet.
According to the directory there are
10 John Andersons'' in Minneapolis.
With this fact in view the prompt atten-
ton given by the. council committee OH
taxes to Il communication signed by this
name is surprising, especially when
John failed to SHOW up after the cordial
invitation given him to appear.
There are only two houses vacant in
Oak Lake addition-an indication that
the supply Of ECmes for the middle
classes is not equaling the demand
Up TO midnight Elder Blethen had
not taken notice OF Elder Stewards
challenge TO Test the muscles of the
home Baptist" Betting is two to one
i'll favor of The Baptist il the fight goes
to finish.
There seems to be a peculiar f2Scina-
ton 10 certain thieves in stealing knives
from The hardware store OF Janney
Bros. The first time the knives were
stolen it took three leading members of
the police department to bring the 10y
burglar back from Duluth. The second
time it took detail of three shining
lights of the force to escort TIE six boys
VINO were found to have the knives in
their possession back TO the city.
w ouldn't it lie cheaper for the city to
buy those knives?
Ed a. Stevens-I like Alden J.
Biethen, even if he is not always con-
sistent. One thing is certain-he never
leaves his gall behind him. While the
Tribune opposes the appointment OF
Park police, Nh. Blethen IS the first to
make a written applicatiol-not for his
own appointment, hut. for Swedish
friend named Sorman.

A PNEUMATIC TUBE.
Packages Carried to ST. Paul in
Ten Minutes.

lCh 4NAihutSS.
At the meeting of the aldermen from
the Second ward and the committee on
ordinances yesterday afternoon, petit
ton from Howell Young and E. A. Hen
erickson for the right to lay Il pneu-
matte tube from the intersection of
Central avenue and Main street out
University avenue to the city limits,
was presented. Mr.. HendrickSOn stated
that he represented Eastern capitalists
who desired to lay tube between the
Twin Cities for the transmission of
packages and mail matter. Such tubes
have been in use in London and
other localities, and the one
it is designed to put III is an improved
tube in which q sphere which rolls is
used i'll place of sliding cylinder, thus
avoiding considerable friction. Sue
ceSsful tests have been made recently
at st. Paul, where the laying of the
tube on WabaSha street has been
granted. The tube is of boiler steel,
thirty inches in diameter and will not
Interfere with the gas or water mains.
He desired that the use of University
avenue should be granted at once, as
the street is to be paved in the fall. The
committee upon receiving the aSSur-
ance that the street will not be torn I'D
for longer time than is necessary to
actually lay the pipe, decided to recon-
mend the passage of the ordinance in
which the privilege of using Fourth
street southeast if University avenue is
paved before the pipe is laid was III
serted.

THE LABOR FESTIVAL
An Assured Success - Large
Crowds Present.


That there is an almost unlimited
interest in the Kirm ess now in progress
at Washington rink is fully demon
strated by the large crowds which
throng the place constantly. Last even
ing was no exception, and at an early
hour the hall was full and
almost running over. Fathers came
with their families and wandered
around the buildings, taking in all the
sights and enjoying themselves to the
utmost. All was good nature, and dur
ing the whole evening laughter and
good natured badinage echoed through
the building. The programme carried
out was an interesting one, embracing
as it did a number of songs by the Nor
mamma Singing society, and music by
the Normanna band. All the selections
were well received, drawing forth much
applause. The evening was especially
marked by the presence of large MEM
bers Scandinavians, who, by the WAY,
evinced hearty interest in the pro-
ceedings. The voting for the candidates
for the various prizes was carried on at
lively rate, and is bringing considera-
bic wealth into the library fund. This
evening there will be a concert under
charge of Prof. Baker. =

WANT TO INVESTIGATE.
Just What is Not Known---Addi-
tiOnai RepOrtS.


At the council meeting two weeks ago
communication remarkable for its
groteSque spelling, which was signed
John Anderson, secretary of the Tax
payers association" was received, in
which it was said that if all
the funds collected from saloon
keepers by order of the
mayor had been turned in receipts of
the city from that source would show an
increase of $4,000 over those of the pre-
knows anything about the Tax
John Anderson" there are 1l9
of him in the city according
to the directory. John Anderson was
urged to appear before the committee
on taxes, but two weeks have passed
and he has not shown up. Notwith-
standing that the communication is Un-
doubtedly anonymous, the committee
yesterday decided to recommend q COM
mittee of five to investigate the charges.
There was not d quorum of the COM
mittee on salaries, and, after consider
ing the request of Building Inspector
BauSman, that his bOokkeeper's salary
be increased from S1,200 to $1,000, adj
journment was taken to Monday at 10
a. m.
The council committee on roads and
bridges yesterday decided to recon-
mend the reappointment OF the follow
ing bridge watchmen: William Fewer,
Plymouth avenue bridge: Patrick En-
win, Suspension bridge; Tenth avenue
bridge, James II. Robinson.

BEARING FRUIT.
Row Over Grain Inspection---An
Official Conference.

There is a gradual fermentation going
on in the grain inspection service2of
Minneapolis, and the facts are now in a
fair way to get out. AS is well known.
thereMas been prolonged kick against
the inspection under A. c. Clausen, and
at meeting at which the commission
was present, the cause of the poor in-
spection was openly stated to be in the
fact that ,Clausen did not appoint his
deputies, and they were not responsible
to him. At the same meeting there
were several remarks to the effect that
G. A. Pillsbury and other politicians
had too much to do with the chOiceof
these inspectors. The appointment of
chief deputy for Minneapolis was pend
ing at that time, and the commission
had come over to hear reports. The
next day the matter was canvassed
in Gov. McGill'S office, and rather
interesting report given in the GLOBE
was considered in connection Herewith.
Some racy statements were made, and
the result was that A. G. Clausen was
reappointed chief deputy, while re-
vulsion of feeling set in in regard to
the appointment of his deputies. Since

branch line from the intersection of First
avenue and Thirty-frst street, across the Mis-
sissippi yer TO be built whenThirty-fir is to
be graded; the lines TO he finished by July
to be operated by animals or by some motive
bower other than steam, and the tracks to be
either narrow or broad guage.
The change in the ordinance does
away with the laying of tracks on
Twenty-eighth street west ofThirteenth
avenue, the line going on Thirty-second
street. This, of course, removed the OBJ
Jections of Aid. Lawrence, as the line
will not touch Twenty-eighth street in
side of the Eighth ward, and also rem
dered unnecessary vehement protest
signed by thirty-eight property owners
on Twenty-eighth street. Aid. Cooley
moved another weeks postponement,
but the motion was lost, and upon the
motion of Aid. Dwyer the committee
decided to grant the prayer of the petit
toner, and the ordinance was referred
to the committee on ordinances and the
city attorney.

Another Howl Over the Park Com
mission Break. TO
A resolution was adopted and given
out for publication yesterday by the
board of trade that is perhaps as anus
ing as several other matters in which
this obscure organization has put itself
on record. A few members got together
yesterday morning and adopted the fol-
lowing: "L
Whereas, Under the wise, efficient ard
noi-pdrtiZan management of the Minneapp-
lis park commission, our park and park VIEWS
system has been rapidly and economically
developed until ii has become an object of
pride to our city, and has added millions CT
dollars to our taxable wealth, and promises
still greater benefits in the future, providing
the policy heretofore established by the CON-
missioners be continued. Therefore be it
Resolved, That this board of trade in the
name and i'll behalf of every good citizen of
Minneapolis, irrespective CT party, HEREBY
enters It's most earnest and emphatic protest
against the recent attempts made 10 convert
the park commission into Il political machine
the important positions of which are to be
Used as Il reward for partisan services at the
sacrifice of or park interests, and we earn
estly request the patriotic members of the
present board 10 reject all such propositions
come from whatever source they may.
This is considered as ''embOdying the
protest Of the board against politics in
the park commission" OF course by
politics they mean Democratic politics.
The board was never partisan so long as
it was Republican, but, according to
this advanced idea, became violently
partisan as soon as it became Demo-
cratic. What stuff and nonsense this is.
The truth of the matter is that the Re-
publicanS have controlled the parks-as
they have everything else-from
the beginning, and they have
not yet been able to reconcile
themselves to their overthrow.
Experience should (but has not have
taught certain board that at framing
resolutions it is ret success. and that
at every attempt it butmakes laughing
stock OF itself.
